Homemade Tomato Juice

With a garden still full of ripe tomatoes, we’ve been experimenting with an old family recipe for Homemade Tomato Juice that comes from my husband Jack’s side of the family!

The original recipe was from Jack’s grandmother, and it was hand written in a mix of English and Italian! (Unfortunately – it was also faded and a little difficult to read!) But Jack was able to decipher enough of the recipe for us to use as a starting point for this homemade tomato juice – and he adapted and modernized it a bit with some of the ingredients we used.

Hands down – the results are fantastic! This is some of the best tomato juice we’ve ever had – homemade or store-bought! It’s actually made from more than just tomatoes – including onions, celery, bell pepper, carrots, and beets, plus a variety of fresh herbs and other seasonings.

What you get is the perfect balance of fresh garden vegetables cooked down into a healthy, tasty homemade tomato juice!

And be sure to check out this great recipe using our homemade tomato juice – our Nautical Mary is a delicious twist on the classic Bloody Mary cocktail!
